Yeah, yeah.
You know.
I mean, I'm only 56 and I find it exhausting and stressful to do any kind of filming, which doesn't happen very often these days.
But imagine being in my 70s and going out into an environment that I find overwhelming and...
And being ordered to do all these mad things and by your son, no less.
I appreciate that.
And I apologize for...
ruining what is supposed to be just a fun no i like it i like it it's a unique take and you know it's like what's wrong with uh cat playing the piano or uh you know lightsaber boy i'll tell you what's wrong it's bad for the cat it's bad for the piano and as for lightsaber boy his whole life was ruined by that viral moment it was anyway but i appreciate that there are some fun nice virals right yeah
And I mean, occasionally you'll get a viral thing that's entirely uplifting and positive.
Oh, look how nice and kind this person is being.
I mean, I can't think of any off the top of my head.
I mean, I can...
Much more available to me when I think of virals are stories of people whose lives were ruined when they had a viral moment.

It's like that's not how life is supposed to work.
You're suddenly being catapulted outside of your normal environment into a space where lots of people are seeing you for the first time, don't really know what makes you tick.
They're just getting a very superficial...
kick from something, it's usually something that's gone wrong.
It's like, oh, you've gone viral, i.e.
you've said something wrong, your life's gone wrong somehow, you've fallen over in an amusing way, something has gone wrong.
